Hi every one,

I have a stream of waste N2 (85%) and ethane (15%) that at low pressure ( 0.1 barg). The stream flow is 1000 kg/hr and need to be compressed up to 3 Barg to be sent to incinerator.

My question is what is the best compressor type (Reciporicating vs. centrifugal)for such stream from all aspects.

Your comments are highly appreciated...

Regards,
